We had a "rest" day in Memphis to do laundry (and worry about the car, if you are me), with nothing really planned except eat bar-b-que, maybe go to high tea (did not do), and watch the duck walk. The ducks walk twice a day, at 11:00 a.m. they walk from their luxury penthouse (byway of the elevator) to the fountain, and at 5:00 p.m. they walk back upstairs.
We got there about 45 minutes early, and by 5:00 p.m. it was PACKED. Also, the ducks walk really fast, so it was hard to get decent pictures.
Ducks in the fountain
The fountain was A LOT smaller than I thought it would be.
The Duckmaster!
They block off an elevator for the ducks to travel on, and this (along with the massive crowd) seemed to really annoy several of the Peabody's guests. To that I say, "Seriously, they are FAMOUS for the ducks. Don't stay here if you think the ducks will be inconvenient to your plans. Loser!"
